Voltrac Raises €7 Million to Scale Thor, Its Autonomous All‑Terrain Farm and Logistics Vehicle

The Valencia company plans to start building 100 units a year in 2026.

Overview

  • Voltrac announced a €7 million seed round led by Extantia with participation from FoodLabs, Antler, PUSH and Prototype Capital.
  • The company says the financing will fund a ramp to roughly 100 Thor unmanned ground vehicles per year starting in 2026 at its Valencia facility.
  • Voltrac describes Thor as tele‑operated with autonomous capabilities that let one operator control multiple units while working with existing farm implements.
  • The firm claims a ground‑up electric architecture with 70% fewer components, distributed wheel motors, swappable batteries and triple the battery capacity of rivals to reduce downtime and maintenance costs.
  • Beyond agriculture, Voltrac says Thor can haul up to 4 tonnes over rough terrain and that it is preparing on‑site logistics and demining trials with Ukrainian unmanned units.
